I have a old six speed Coltech lathe which still runs well. However whilst the 3 jaw chuck runs true, there is a lot of slop in the jaw sliders and it cannot be used for any accurate work.
Can anyone suggest were I could get a good quality second hand or new chuck that would fit.
If I can sort out this problem will probably be good for another 50 years as it is built like a tank!
